Examining barbiturate scaffold for the synthesis of new agents with biological interest
Aim: Barbiturates have a long history of being used as drugs presenting wide varieties of biological activities (antimicrobial, anti-urease and antioxidant). Reactive oxygen species are associated with inflammation implicated in cancer, atherosclerosis and autoimmune diseases. Multitarget agents represent a powerful approach to the therapy of complicated inflammatory diseases. Results: A novel series of barbiturates has been synthesized and evaluated in several in vitro assays. Compound 16b (lipoxygenases inhibitor, 55.0 μM) was found to be a cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor (27.5 μM). Compound 8b was profiled as a drug-like candidate. Conclusion: The barbiturate core represents a new scaffold for lipoxygenases inhibition, and the undertaken derivatives show promise as multiple-target agents to combat inflammatory diseases.
